Chicken Walks

Today we did something really neat & different.  Usually mom tries to take me for a walk & I hate it.  When I'm about 20 feet from our driveway I want to go home.  She coaxes me along, but I don't like it.  At all.
I've been hoping she would take the hint (I try to drag her home at every opportunity).  I think she may have gotten it.  Today we took a walk in the woods around our house.  
I didn't have to wear a leash.
We had a great walk.  I got to check stuff out and I got a lot of snacks.  I'm not entirely sure what was going on, but every few minutes I heard this loud whistle & then mom called me over to her.  And then I got chicken.  I really love chicken and you never know when she's going to pull that stuff out.  But I think it has something to do with that whistle.  Which is pretty convenient, because if I'm distracted by some smell on the ground it's nice to have a warning that chicken is being served.
Oh, and guess what I'm good at?  I can balance on a fallen tree really well.  I've done it at the dog park & today I got to do it at home.  That is pretty cool, it's not easy for a dog but I'm very, very clever.
Maybe once I show mom that we have more fun walking in the woods then she'll let me do that more and more, and we can skip the walks along the street.  I gotta go, I need a nap now.
